[dba-Tech] IE11 - I need cookies enabled

I understand your pain.

I always feel much more comfortable when I can easily get at the core of a system...when things go really wrong the command prompt is the only recourse. The solution is usually slow but in the GUI everything tends to nicely insulate any problem and when an error does appear it usually explains the GUI and not the command error.

I will assume you have Googled the error to infinitum as setting cookies in IE11 should be real simple...

Hi Tina,
Yes I think this is 'machinery hell'. I just about begged the owner not to
do this but as all unheeded advice tends to go, he will pay for that
disregard. I typically would try a system restore but this machine is so
complicated, and everything else is working perfectly, so I hate to do that.
And in the end, what do I learn from it? ;-) I know there are situations
that are unresolvable but until such time as I reach that conclusion I shall
attempt to figure this out.

It sure sounds like one of those moments when the machinery has something
stuck in its craw. Everything says it's correct, but it doesn't work.  Isn't
that when we back everything out - everything that could be involved - maybe
use a restore point - reboot the system - and start over? The fact that the
other machine with the same configuration works, definitely points to
stuck-in-the-craw situation, doesn't it?  As I recall from engineering
school, the image of Hell is a fine modern mechanical room, filled with the
newest and best machines, all of which are in perfect working condition -
and nothing works.  :-) TNF
